Apple: a MacBook Air cheaper on the horizon?

-

Apple could get ready to refresh its MacBook range outrageously stagnant with the launch of a cheaper MacBook Air during the second quarter.

Are you looking for a new MacBook Air, while continuing to desert the Apple Store, disappointed by the stagnation of the products it houses? Well, 2018 could smile you.

According to the analyst of KGI Securities Ming - Chi Kuo, and as reported by 9To5Mac, Apple plans to release a new MacBook Air 13 inch, and this at "a lower price. Expected launch date: second quarter of this year.

Cheaper, but by how much?

The MacBook Air is currently available from $ 999. And even if it has been updated in June 2017 (Apple went Intel Core i5 at 1.8 GHz processor), he experienced no real development since March 2015.

How much cost this new MacBook Air ? Kuo does not. A drop of 100 dollars off the price certainly revigorerait sales, while declining to 799 dollars could put serious pressure on the leading manufacturers of laptop computers Windows and set off a new price war.

And as we are already in March, should not wait much longer until Apple unveils new MacBook Air. And since the MacBook Air is popular among students, a renewal in the run-up to the period from the beginning of the school year should no doubt help stimulate sales.
